what parents are saying:

"As parents we were exhausted from managing the drama our teen was causing in the home and really questioning whether there were any options at all for us. Thank you for simplifying the process, helping us find solutions and being so patient with our many questions."

- Lisa S. (California)

"Mahlon is well - He came home 2 months ago - and certainly is a changed kid. His first report card was a 3.3! I have only seen that when he was at White River Academy."

- Lisa (parent of a once troubled teen) - Modesto, California

"This program has helped me to realize the things I was doing wrong, figure out ways to better myself, understand how to care and to help others."

- Tommy (Former Student, Texas)

Sy and I are now happy. He has learned to talk to me and I've learned to listen. My biggest mistake was I wouldn't listen to him. WRA is for the parents as much as it is for the students."

- Sherry (California)

The staff was well-qualified in providing the assistance that my son needed.

Adolescents are Powerfully Influenced by their Peers: We Take Advantage of That

Some times as adolescents in Georgia pass through the storms of adolescence they become entangled in a challenging sub culture of negative friend involvement. The teenís feelings of need for acceptance forces them to make bad decisions based on their friends coaxing. We use Positive Peer Culture which assigns teens the duty of helping each other. We teach them to have values instead of just forcing them to obey specific rules. Adolescents will only be as responsible as we expect them to be, so we expect quality things from the teens in our program.

Some times it is necessary to remove them from their present location in order to stop the negative cycle in which they find themselves.

Other reason's for not keeping a defiant teen in the same place in which they have passd are:

Greater desire to run away from location

Negative friends may attempt to frequent location of placement

Availability of dangerous resources such as drugs, if a student were able to leave the facility in which they were placed

This is just a small list of the potential problems and issues associated with keeping a defiant youth close to their home.
